was in the habit of taking mixture of lauda-
mum and lavender. On Friday night of last
week, about midnight, be left his bed and
went down to his drug store, adjoining his

his wife some alarm. Search was made, and
he was discovered in the cellar, where he had

medicine of some kind, probably laudanum

public affairs. On Wednesday funeral services
were held at his late residence, and the re-
mains were taken by the s.as train to Balti-
more, thence by steamer to Centreville for
interment. The pail bearers here were
